I Love My Hybrid Grandson

About

I Love My Hybrid Grandson, also known as I ❤️ My Hybrid Grandson or I Heart My Hybrid Grandson, refers to an exploitable Wojak Comic showing a mixed-race or interspecies married couple and their son standing next to his grandpa who's wearing a shirt reading the aforementioned catchphrase. The original comic used characters from the animated film Zootopia (the fox Nick Wilde and the rabbit Judy Hopps), turning them into Soyjak variants like Impjak, Shirtjak and Wholesome Soyjak.
